You feel like a candle, in a hurricane
Just like a picture, with a broken frame
Alone and helpless, like you've lost your fight
But you'll be alright, you'll be alright
'Coz when push comes to shove
You taste what you're made of
You might bend 'til you break
'Coz it's all you can take
On your knees you look up
Decide you've had enough
You get mad, you get strong
Wipe your hands, shake it off
Then you stand
Then you stand
Life's like a novel, with the end ripped out
The edge of a canyon, with only one way down (One way down)
Take what you're given, before it's gone
Start holding on, keep holding on
'Coz when push comes to shove
You taste what you're made of
You might bend 'til you break
'Coz it's all you can take
On your knees you look up
Decide you've had enough
You get mad, you get strong
Wipe your hands, shake it off
Then you stand (Then you stand)
Yeah-Eh-Eh-Eh then you stand (Then you stand)
Every time you get up
And get back in the race
One more small piece of you
Starts to fall into place, Yeah, Whoo-Ooh-Ooh
'Coz when push comes to shove
You taste what you're made of (What you're made of)
You might bend 'til you break
'Coz it's all you can take
On your knees you look up
Decide you've had enough
You get mad, you get strong
Wipe your hands, shake it off
Then you stand (Then you stand)
Then you stand (Then you stand)
Yeah, then you stand (Then you stand)
Eh-Eh-Eh-Yeah-Eh-Eh-Eh, Yeah, Baby (Then you stand)
Whoo, Hoo, Whoo, Hoo, Whoo, Hoo, Whoo-Hoo-Ooh
Then you stand, Yeah, Yeah
Just like a picture, with a broken frame
Alone and helpless, like you've lost your fight
But you'll be alright, you'll be alright
'Coz when push comes to shove
You taste what you're made of
You might bend 'til you break
'Coz it's all you can take
On your knees you look up
Decide you've had enough
You get mad, you get strong
Wipe your hands, shake it off
Then you stand
Then you stand
Life's like a novel, with the end ripped out
The edge of a canyon, with only one way down (One way down)
Take what you're given, before it's gone
Start holding on, keep holding on
'Coz when push comes to shove
You taste what you're made of
You might bend 'til you break
'Coz it's all you can take
On your knees you look up
Decide you've had enough
You get mad, you get strong
Wipe your hands, shake it off

Yeah-Eh-Eh-Eh then you stand (Then you stand)

Kevin John Coyne, reviewing the song for Country Universe, gave it a D rating.
